Syrian Army Gives Crushing Response to Terrorists’ Recent Attack in Hama

The Arabic-language al-Watan daily reported that Tahrir al-Sham conducted mortar attack on army’s positions in the small town of Zalin in Northern Hama on Saturday.

It further said that army’s artillery and missile units, in response, pounded Tahrir al-Sham’s strongholds in the villages and towns of Wadi al-Dorat, al-Zakat, Albueizah, al-Latamina and a region between al-Latamina and Lahaya in Northern Hama and in the village of Jisr Beit al-Raas in al-Ghaab Plain, inflicting heavy casualties on the terrorists and major damage on their equipment.

On Thursday, the army’s artillery units targeted a group of Kata’eb al-Izzah terrorists who intended to gain control of the military regions near the town of Morek in Northern Hama, killing and wounding several militants and destroying their military equipment.

The remaining terrorists fled to their positions inside Morek, field sources said.

In recent days, the terrorist groups have sent more gunmen and military equipment to contact lines with Syrian army, launching more missile attacks on government forces’ positions in Hama province.
